Virgil can also be quite outright rude. When he posted his commercial ads
to aus.ads.forsale.computers, a non-commercial group on Usenet, and I sent
him polite email saying this was inappropriate, I received the following
reply:

Sod off. If you think you're the first one to mention this to me, then
think again. I'm sick to death of low life anal retentives like you
thinking that they are God. Get a real life and stop being so focussed -
your life must be very empty and shallow to have to waste your time
annoying other people.

AN innocent error and all I get is your terse written bovine faeces.

Kind Regards - Virgil


He might be cheap, but he's also downright rude when he pleases.

Regards,
Hamish
